Highland Park Cleanup for IL State

[Disc71]

Some things that need to be done:
If you have time please fee free to tackle any of these projects. July 5 or 6 and/or 12 & 13 will be the next big organized days but I’ll keep you posted on that.
 

If you (Complete) something post on the website or let me know through email so we continue to update the list.

Once the Taste of Joliet is over (June 27 – 29) the Park District should be able to cut most accessible fairways and the top of hill by 11’s blue tee pad to the parking lot. (ALMOST COMPLETE)

Some of the stuff completed on the list might have to be redone because of all of this damn rain this year. I’ll keep you posted.
 
If anyone has a lot of time during the day and wants a big project to start than go to hole 16’s hill. As always it’s going to take a lot of work to get that thing trimmed up. Everyone will be playing both tee pads like last year so most of the hill needs to be cut up. I’ll be starting it this week.

Thanks for volunteering!

I may have some time tomorrow morning to work on the course. Can I get an update on what still needs to be done?

[Disc71]

1&15 are good for now. Frank will finish 4. I'm going start on the hill on 16 this week. The bent trees on 13 & 14 are gone.
Park District should eventually cut on top by 10 &11.

We have just shy of two weeks to get Highland ready for Ill. State. Getting the Park ready puts added stress on Jesse. I think he has a ton to focus on relative to the tournament. I think next week-end up to the the tournament will be crunch time. If you can help out, that would be sweet. Right now it's general in the scope of everything.
